Here's the big Senate Judiciary Committee report: judiciary.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/… Image
Here's the Republican response, a lesson in "when typeface says a lot." judiciary.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/… Image
Still obsessed w the BJay Pak stuff in Georgia. It seems like the additional info from the report (tho I might have missed reporting on this) is that Donoghue just decided while talking w Trump on 1/3 that Pak would be "resigning" the next day — to stop Trump from firing Pak. Image
Jeffrey Bossert Clark. Wow. This is such an unbelievable, completely-outside-of-the-realm-of-acceptable-behavior proposal ... Image
... and it's made even more cartoonishly evil by the way he proposes it — with less concern than that which I would exhibit in proposing which movie we should see this weekend: Image
It's really going to be difficult to write ominous, bad-actor political fiction going forward that doesn't just rehash old Trump administration ground. Image
Oh, wow. While Clark was scheming with Trump to possibly take over DOJ, that didn't stop him — while asking for DOJ to send those letters — from asking the people he was scheming to oust for a promotion!!! This is from the "Urgent Action Items" email: Image
Jeffrey Bossert Clark was GOING FOR IT. Here's the conclusion for his "proof of concept" letter that was to go to Georgia that he attached to that email to Rosen and Donoghue: Image
!!! Donoghue, 70 minutes later, responds: "[T]here is no chance that I would sign this letter or anything remotely like this." Image
Here is Donoghue's full response to Clark, which is BLISTERING, and concludes: "[F]rom where I stand, this is not even within the realm of possibility." Image

Is this an alternative universe thing? I mean, why is Tucker in, like, a lodge or something? What is this? It can’t be about our universe.
This makes me so mad. Like, we had an entire generation of gay men stigmatized by most of the nation in what was already their most traumatized moment. People who weren’t gay and contracted HIV were often just as stigmatized. There were and are HIV-specific criminal laws!
“Failure to make moral judgments on this behavior is why we have this epidemic. To my knowledge, the President has never said that we are to abandon moral judgment on these types of matters.” - Reagan staffer Carl Anderson, in a 1987 White House memo

So so so very good to be back. 🎭 I’m here tonight because I realized that if I didn’t make it to a theater before Tuesday, I’d not have seen any in-person theater while I was 43. To get to have the one show be a James Baldwin show feels more than right. 💖 To the theater. ImageImage
🥺 I missed you so, live theater. 😍
It had been 580 days since I last attended an in-person theater performance. I teared up when I picked up my ticket from will call. I sat quietly, filled with such gratitude, as the actors made their opening entrances. We all stood, applauding, as the show came to a close. 🎭

Two Clinton-appointed judges in their 70s were all that stood in the path of Thapar having his way here.
Here's Judge Thapar, Trump's first appeals court nominee, mincing no words and saying that, in his view, Tennessee can do whatever it wants, including a total ban on abortion.
More from Thapar: "But those precedents are wrong."
